Find the number of triangles in the given figure.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The figure may be labelled as shown.
The simplest triangles are AHG, AIG, AIB, JFE, CJE and CED i.e. 6 in number.
The triangles composed of two components each are ABG, CFE, ACJ and EGI i.e. 4 in number.
The triangles composed of three components each are ACE, AGE and CFD i.e. 3 in number.
There is only one triangle i.e. AHE composed of four components.
Therefore, There are 6 + 4 + 3 + 1 = 14 triangles in the given figure.

The meaning of the component here is a triangle has made with how much points(a,b,c,d,e... j) in a straight line i.e AHE has made with 4 points in a straight line!

CFD is covered by 4 triangles. This changes the calculation by triangles covered by three components are 2 and four triangle components 2.

Nice explanation @Priyanka.
But is it applicable on any other diagram? Like on square or rectangle?

A doubt in this figure, why we are counting 4 triangles twice. Ex aig in one component and 4 components.
